What your basin is made of matters
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

- We protect the area around the basin.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- We match the colour by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

When to call us in Oxhey
Basins are right where bottles and hair tools get dropped. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Chips around the rim
- Cracks starting at the waste
- Chips from dropped toiletries
- An antique basin with chips

Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best:
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Have new chips repaired quickly
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
Oxhey questions
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Oxhey included. There is no extra charge for travel.
What does sink repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Surface cracks can typically be repaired. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Tell us about it when you send photos.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.
Repairing versus replacing in Oxhey
Finding the same basin again is not always possible, especially in a matching suite. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Our sink repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How many areas need work
- The type of damage
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your photos
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
